Focusing on five Los Angeles environmental policy debates between 1920 and 1950, Sarah Elkind investigates how practices in American municipal government gave business groups political legitimacy at the local level as well as unanticipated influence over federal politics. Elkind shows that business groups secured their political power by providing Los Angeles authorities with much-needed services.
